Why does miles not enforce the fumble-bench rule with aj?
It's obvious that Harris can't do worse than 0 pts versus Arkansas.

because, in most cases, it is much harder to replace a QB than a RB

would you have the same thought if Mett was still here?

Wilson benches the running backs for fumbling not miles. He decided the running back rotations.

What about dropped passes, fricked up snaps, or shank punts?

You can't do that to a QB, but I understand your logic.

Do those cases even apply here?

turnovers are turnovers whether they are filled with apples or blueberries.

right

if Miles doesn't bench AJ for all the other shite, he isn't going to bench him for a fumble

1) More RBs than QBs

2) A RB has, as his PRIMARY job, to run the ball and not fumble it.

3) A QB handles the ball 60-80 times a game. Our most used RBs handle it 15-20 times a game. Based on percentages...one would say a fumble by a RB is a higher ratio than one by a QB

4) Les does it to piss you off

This has been a double standard with Miles but it's not just with the QB & RBs. It's the same with AJ & BH. It was the same with JJ & JL.

It took four turnovers in one quarter for Jennings to finally sit. As soon as Harris made a mistake it was right back to Jennings.

It's clear that performance is not a good indicator for who miles chooses to play at qb.
